micromass said:OK, I will write on that. But perhaps I can already give a quick recommendation to you already? What is your math background?
ElijahRockers said:B.S. Electrical Engineering, focused on DSP. I have taken a couple courses in probability, but nothing in statistics. I am familiar with Markov chains, and Kalman filtering for example, but not in Z-score. (I have only heard the term).

(by the way you participated in a thread I created about p-values very recently, thank you for your input)
Thank you for the amazing tips man.micromass said:micromass submitted a new PF Insights post

It can also be beneficial to have a mix of both individual and group study sessions. Experiment to see what works best for you.

There are many resources available to help supplement your math studies. Some popular options include:
